SCA: security update for github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2, github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v3 (GHSA-gpx4-37g2-c8pv)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 435461

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Argo CD is a declarative, GitOps continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes. For versions 2.9.0-rc1 through
 2.14.19, 3.0.0-rc1 through 3.2.0-rc1, 3.1.6 and 3.0.17, when the webhook.azuredevops.username and
 webhook.azuredevops.password are not set in the default configuration, the /api/webhook endpoint crashes
 the entire argocd-server process when it receives an Azure DevOps Push event whose JSON array
 resource.refUpdates is empty. The slice index [0] is accessed without a length check, causing an index-
 out-of-range panic. A single unauthenticated HTTP POST is enough to kill the process. This issue is
 resolved in versions 2.14.20, 3.2.0-rc2, 3.1.8 and 3.0.19. (CVE-2025-59538)
